SACRAMENTO -- Today, eight Sacramento area legislators announced the formation of the Capital Caucus, an organization dedicated to bringing people together from the greater capital region to foster bipartisan collaboration and drive progress on shared regional goals.

"The capital region is experiencing unprecedented growth and investment from across a number of different economic sectors," said Senator Angelique Ashby (D-Sacramento). "It's critical that our region band together to advocate for its continued success and growth. I look forward to working closely with my capital region colleagues to advance regional priorities with one strong voice."

"The greater Sacramento community is a place where people want to live, work and raise a family. Our communities have good schools and safe neighborhoods, but we must do more to move the capital region forward," said Assemblyman Josh Hoover (R-Folsom). "This new caucus will give legislators and regional stakeholders an opportunity to work together on issues like economic development, flood control and infrastructure. I am excited at the opportunity to work with my Sacramento-area colleagues on important regional issues that must be prioritized."

The founding members of the Capital Caucus are:

  • Senator Angelique Ashby (D-Sacramento)
  • Senator Christopher Cabaldon (D-West Sacramento)
  • Senator Roger Niello (R-Fair Oaks)
  • Assemblymember Cecilia Aguiar-Curry (D-Winters)
  • Assemblymember Heath Flora  (R-Ripon)
  • Assemblymember Josh Hoover (R-Folsom)
  • Assemblymember Maggie Krell (D-Sacramento)
  • Assemblymember Stephanie Nguyen (D-Elk Grove)
